can you help me understand the *\whatever\* notation
it appears that rpm is told to query all
but then restrict its output to entries with nvidia or kernel
but neither man bash or man rpm explains the use of these "kinda like comment" markers *\ and \*

how do i interpret these?
where could i read about these?

Try:

Quote:

rpm --help

You will not get syntax examples, but all the options will have some explanations.
